    I decided to get a smoothy at shake smart it was very overpriced and when I received it after waiting for about 8-10 minutes. It looked very bad and when I tried it it was so bad I had way higher expectations on that drink to and it tasted so gross it was super think and I didn't even taste the banana and strawberry it tasted like fake peanut butter.

    Strawberry fields shake (with strawberry, vanilla protein)
    Yoandra V.

    I love this place. It's an outdoor grab and go smoothie, acai bowl store. While it is a little more expensive than other food and drink places at CSUN, it is very much worth it I usually get the organic super-shake which has vanilla protein, organic superfood and peanut butter. I also get the strawberry fields which has strawberries and vanilla protein. Both of these are really good and you can also substitute regular milk for soy or almond (if available). I like how you can now go to the iPads just outside and order your drinks there so you can have time to fully look through the menu and take your time deciding what to get before paying at the cashier window. I also love how they recently added a canopy since there was little to no shade and sometimes it was too hot to stand in line or wait for drinks. These drinks are perfect after going to the gym or if its too hot ( it does get too hot in the valley around july - november).

    Blueberry, peanutbutter, banana, and protien

    This place uses whey gold standard protein which is really good quality. Shakes are delicious but a little on the pricey side. My favorite is the cold coffee shake with a scoop protien! This place perfect for a quick healthy snack before class or after a good workout!

    Original acai bowl
    Gabby R.

    Everything served here is amazing! The chocolate shake and the original acai bowls are my favorite. The staff here is always friendly and attentive. After an intsense exercise, or a fast bite before class, the food served here is definitely my go to option. The fruit is fresh and there are multiple options to customize your order.

    Honestly... dry oats lol. Still yummy

    This place is hit or miss. Smoothies are definitely on the sweeter side at times. Wraps are a hit, especially the turkey and sun dried tomato one. I ordered overnight oats and they look dry as hell. Definitely not how I expected them to look. They're still pretty good though. I wish they added more fruit, I got blueberries in it and they didn't really put too many. Staff is usually really nice so that's always appreciated.

    Cold brew coffee smoothie with peanut butter (yum!) and original acai bowl (okay)
    Jill F.

    I ordered a cold brew shake ($4.50) with peanut butter and an original acai bowl ($6.50). The acai smoothie base itself was a bit watery and bland though not at all icy. By itself, it was pretty meh. The granola, seeds, and banana were the perfect amount on top though and they made the bowl more interesting. My friend got the P&B acai bowl. The smoothie base was much nicer tasting (peanut butter makes everything delicious), but it would be nice to have bananas on top rather than the chocolate chips. I enjoyed the cold brew shake a lot. Do note that it tastes much better with the peanut butter. My friend got it without the add-on, and it was a little more bitter and thin. My whole bill was $11.50. It was a light, refreshing breakfast. I was probably 70% full.

    Great customer by Kurt will only come back coz of him.

    Great Vibe, Delicious Bowls & Fresh Empanadas~~~ Located in…read morea busy shopping plaza in Northridge, Ubatuba Açaí is such a gem! Walking inside, the space is brightly lit, super comfortable, & welcoming. One of the best things about this spot is that they offer different sizing options for their açai bowls. Since I was meeting up with a friend for brunch afterward, I went with a tiny dessert-sized portion this time. I customized mine with chia pudding and almond butter, & it was incredibly flavorful and healthy~ My friend went all out with a regular-sized bowl loaded with bananas, blueberries, chocolate shavings, and all the works. Beyond açai, they also serve freshly baked empanadas every single day with awesome flavor options like chicken, beef, pork, & spinach & cheese. They've really thought of everything to make this a great place to hang out~~~ They have a TV playing funny animal videos and an entire area packed with tons of board games you can grab and play. There are plenty of seating options both inside and outside, plus a clean restroom for customers. Whether you're looking for a quick, healthy snack or a cozy spot to chill with friends, this place completely nails the vibe. I'll definitely be back to get my açai bowl fix~~~

    Location 2 stars: In a large shopping plaza off of Reseda and Citronia. While the parking lot is…read morequite large, it is extremely difficult to find parking during peak times. Street parking is free but extremely limited. Venue 4 stars: Nicely appointed, inviting, cozy and homey, medium sized venue with indoor tables and a couple of small outdoor tables and stools. You order and pick up at the counter. No waiter service. Service 4 stars: Polite, courteous and efficient. Food 4 stars: Great Acai bowls, smoothies and empanadas. You can order one of their signature Acai creations or customize your own. We had the Ubatuba Bowl customized as (1) strawberries, bananas, honey, granola, diced almonds and shaved coconut and (2) strawberries, bananas, honey, granola, Nutella and mangos. Both were excellent and highly recommended. The Bottom Line 4 stars: A great choice when craving some good Acai. Highly recommended!

    I saw this place in a video, and I knew I had to give it a try. It was so hard deciding between…read morematcha and vietnamese coffee because I love both, but I had to try one of their hottest items. I'm so glad I tried the Creme Brûlée Vietnamese iced coffee because it was insanely delicious. You get: 1. Vietnamese iced coffee 2. Crème Brûlée topping with a rich sweet foam underneath that has a decadent flavor 3. Custard at the bottom, which was thick and creamy and reminiscent of flan One thing I will say about the drink, it is insanely sweet. I have a sweet tooth so I loved it, but if you're looking for a caffeine pick-me-up and not what is practically a dessert, I would go for another option. If you want a sweet treat, give it a try! I promise it won't disappoint! My bf also got the chocobanana smoothie, which he describes as "chocodelicious" and "banantastic". The flavors are pretty straightforward on that one! I hope to go back and try one of their other options soon, like the Vietnamese Egg Coffee or one of their matcha drinks. Another thing they have is these cute jelly toppers, shaped like little animals and labubus. Super cute if you're looking for something aesthetically pleasing and insta-worthy. Finally, they have a cute wall covered in drawings done on post-its that they provide in their store. If you're an artist or just love to draw, this is a cute way to express some creativity and get some eyes on your art. I saw some really funny drawings and some really impressive ones! I always love when businesses provide little activities like this to do, and it was truly the icing on the cake that was their great menu! Happy tasting!

    This is one of our go-to spots whenever we're craving boba. We've tried both their milk teas and…read morefruit teas, and they've all been consistently good. One thing I really appreciate is that the drinks aren't overly sweet, so you can actually enjoy the flavors without feeling like you're drinking pure sugar. The staff are always friendly and helpful, and the shop is clean and well-kept. There are plenty of boba places to choose from, but this is one we find ourselves coming back to again and again.

    Visited: 4/1/26 & 4/26/26…read more DRINKS Dalgona Matcha Viet Coffee ($6.25) - 7/10 This drink was enjoyable overall, but the matcha didn't taste very high quality. It leaned more on the milky side rather than having that deeper, slightly earthy matcha flavor you'd expect. It still had a nice sweetness and was easy to drink, but if you're someone who really appreciates strong, authentic matcha, this might fall a bit short. Viet Coffee with Sea Salt Foam ($6.25) - 7.5/10 My sister ordered this at 50% sweetness, which ended up being a great choice since 100% would likely be overpowering. The sea salt foam added a nice creamy contrast that balanced the drink well. However, it didn't quite capture the rich taste of traditional Vietnamese coffee and instead tasted more like a sweeter, standard iced coffee. Still good, just not very authentic in flavor. The Nutty Latte ($6.75) - 4/10 This one wasn't for me at all. The texture was extremely thick and chunky, making it difficult and honestly unpleasant to drink. It felt like drinking straight peanut butter mixed with milk, and the chunks would sometimes get stuck in my throat. It also didn't resemble a latte in either texture or taste. Iced Rose Latte with Cheese Foam and Honey Boba ($6.25 + $0.85 + $0.85) - 7.5/10 If you enjoy floral drinks, especially rose, you'll likely enjoy this one. The rose flavor is definitely present without being too overpowering, and the cheese foam adds a slight savory contrast that keeps it interesting. The honey boba adds a bit of extra sweetness and texture. Overall, it's a solid drink, just nothing particularly standout compared to other rose lattes. FOOD Mozzarella Cheese Sticks ($5.25) - 6/10 These come with your choice of sauce, and I went with ranch. They're very standard mozzarella sticks, nothing particularly memorable or unique. The cheese wasn't as melty as I would've liked, and the breading was noticeably thick, which made them feel a bit heavy. They're fine if you're craving something fried, but not something I'd go out of my way to get again. Okonomi French Fries ($5.25) - 7/10 The sauce is definitely the highlight here! It has a slightly sweet flavor that makes the fries more enjoyable and adds something different. Unfortunately, the fries themselves were a bit underwhelming. They tasted slightly stale, lacked seasoning, and weren't as crispy as they should have been. Chicken Wings ($7.75) - 8.5/10 This was surprisingly the best item! The chicken was fresh, hot, and had a really satisfying crunch. While they weren't heavily seasoned on their own, the texture and freshness made up for it, and the ranch dipping sauce helped add more flavor. Definitely a solid choice if you want something savory alongside your drink. How to Order: Ordering is done through a touchpad system, which makes the process quick and easy, especially when it's busy. They also have a very wide variety of drinks on the menu, so there's something for pretty much everyone, whether you like coffee, tea, or more unique specialty drinks. Seating: This is a great place to study or hang out for longer periods of time. There's plenty of indoor seating along with accessible outlets, which makes it convenient if you need to get work done. However, it can get very loud and hectic during the week since a lot of students come here, sometimes to the point where it feels chaotic with people talking loudly or even yelling. Weekends are generally a bit calmer, but the music is still played fairly loud, so it may not be ideal if you're sensitive to noise unless you bring noise-canceling headphones. I didn't mind it at all and could work normally. Atmosphere: One big plus is that they're open late until midnight, which makes it a really convenient late-night spot whether you're studying or just want somewhere to relax. The shop itself has a modern, casual vibe, and the high traffic gives it a lively atmosphere, though that can be a downside depending on what you're looking for. Parking: It's located in a plaza, so parking is relatively easy and accessible. Restroom: The restroom requires a code to access and is relatively clean, which is always appreciated.
